Mapping Temperature Zone of Ethiopia for Binder Performance Grading System

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Several studies from the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) have demonstrated that improving asphalt binder standards by incorporating performance‐based characteristics can benefit road network administrators. This approach provides a better understanding of pavement behavior during its operational phase.

Development of Evaluation Methods for High‐Viscosity‐Modified Asphalt Using Gray Correlation and Regression Analysis

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
To address the need for a more robust evaluation framework for high‐viscosity‐modified asphalt (HVM), this study systematically investigates rheological and mechanical properties using comprehensive tests, including softening point (SP), dynamic viscosity (DV), DSR, BBR, high‐temperature performance (HEAP), and low‐temperature performance (LEAP).

Enhancing γ‐Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) in Boza, a Fermented Turkish Beverage: Role of Monosodium Glutamate and Lactobacillus Strains

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Research Background: Enrichment of fermented foods with γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) is one of the recent strategies to obtain novel functional foods, and this fermentation process is led by GABA producer suitable lactic acid bacteria strains. Adaptation of high GABA‐producing LAB strains to the fermentation environments is key, and boza, a cereal‐based ...

Influence of Biomass‐Modified Asphalt Binder on Rutting Resistance

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Biomasses are environmentally friendly additives that lower pollution in pavement engineering because of their biodegradability. On the other hand, to build a safe, long‐lasting pavement, rutting prevention is crucial. This study provides a comprehensive review of the efficacy of biomass as recyclable materials in reducing rutting and enhancing ...
